Conifers for Gardens: An Illustrated Encyclopedia
by: Richard L. Bitner


Editorial Review:

Conifers for Gardens is intended to take away the element of uncertainty when you're choosing a plant that may alter your yard for years to come. Profusely illustrated with more than 1,500 crisp photographs and brimming with concise descriptions of both species and their numerous cultivars, this meticulously researched reference provides information - including size, appearance, hardiness, preferred growing conditions and susceptibility to pests and diseases - for almost every hardy conifer you're likely to encounter in the trade, whether it's a tried-and-true favorite or a connoisseur's treasure. So if you've ever been torn between, say, 'Golden Mop', 'Lemon Thread', and 'Sungold' sawara-cypresses, relax - choosing and identifying conifers just got a whole lot easier.

Avg. Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0

Lots of info:

I am a professional gardener. This book is very helpful and useful and it has lots of pictures. The only thing that I might say is missing is that not every variety shown has mature height and width, and it doesn't always say what the light requirements are. But, it still gives me varieties that look like what I might need for a given property, and if it doesn't give all the information I need, I just look up the variety from another source. Overall, it is a good "idea" book.

Review of Conifers for Gardens, Bitner:

I was somewhat disappointed that many significant conifers had been left out of this "encyclopedia", making it difficult to do the research I need.
The photographs are of higher quality than an older 2-volume Conifers: The Illustrated Encyclopedia by van Gelderen and van Hoey Smith.

Very good Conifers book:

I have never read a very good book about conifers, with nice photos, like this.

Conifers for Gardens:

Very informative for most of the information. Also very helpful in choosing conifers for my area. Could give a little more info on zones and size of trees. Sometimes that info is mentioned and sometimes not. Overall a good book with good information.
